Odd that. It's almost as though it's never really been about caring for others and more about Boris bashing. Three almost identical posts in six minutes over two threads, that's quite the obsession you've got there friend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a moment to dwell upon your bold statement and beyond the searching for c thread green dots, think about Sturgeon and her leadership. Come to think of it, why is it Sturgeon and why is it Boris? You've fallen for his schtick, you have, haven't you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The c thread isn't really real, it is desolate and circular. Some may say rank. I counsel and urge you, in all sincerity, to think about your claim and what it means for your credibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By any measure, that is a very poor effort. You alleged that Nicola's purpose is to subvert Johnson. Thus far you have been unable to substantiate this and you've reverted to what some might regard as a lazy ad hominem attack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one, in the interests of levelling up, would welcome a tax on the intellectuals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jedi Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) Partgate is well and truly in the rear view now... Levelling Up (vacuous nonsense which they can't afford, and have left sufficiently vague with a date of 2030, to enable them at the next GE simply to say 'progress is being made on it' 'Standing Up' to Putin (despite all his connections to oligarchs which have been well publicised, will they continue? what do you think?) Ending Covid Restrictions: A populist measure, designed to appease the electorate...(and no, Sturgeon's move is not comparable in the sense that it is more cautious) Managing to get Crissida Dick removed, so that he can 'choose' the next Met Chief, and get them to brush everything under the carpet. Next up....tax cuts, probably next year, just in time for the GE. Gammons are gonna gammon over all this, by the time the GE comes around...he has got away with it..again.

It’s been pointed out (maybe in this thread) that what they say or do doesn’t really matter. 30/35% of the English FPTP votes are guaranteed set in stone. Settle down for a lifetime of Eton governance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jedi Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Oh, there is still time yet. Yes, 30-35% is pretty much in the bag, 'but' he will make a lot more mistakes over the next 2 years....whether or not Labour can capitalise on that or not...time will tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyellowbox Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Maybe I overestimate the record keeping of the UK government and security services, but surely there will be records of what ministers were at what Russian parties etc? Also,,I hope some folk are keeping records of what ministers are saying about the Saudis and what cozying up is going on as this is all inevitably going to come back and bite them in the arse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You are just naive. Why would anyone keeps records of this? Give yourself enough rope - maybe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a public record of where ministers have been after the fact. What publicly appointed ministers do and where they are should be made available to the public. Clearly, where there is a security issue or something personal such as visiting family, then no, but otherwise..... I'm pretty sure this is how it works in the US. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think meeting with donors and patrons is a security issue? Pretty sure everyone involved in government would. Time spent shagging interns too.

Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 100% chance that the Russians have some grainy footage of our Prime Minister’s fat, hairy arse wobbling like a broken Hoover bag as it oscillates in and out of a completely disinterested Russian beauty as she chews on a couple of Wrigley’s Juicy Fruits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I more meant, if minister x is on way to meet active troops or something, it might not be safe to have that made public prior to it happening or if they are there or something. Generally, I think the public has the right to know where ministers are and who they meet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, my point was just that the people in charge of deciding what the public is and isn't entitled to know will always make sure their most egregious activities are kept from us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
